CLIENT APPRECIATION

Director of Customer Support & Logistics

Monster Cable Products

We believed we had previously negotiated the best parcel contracts and rates given the size and scope of our business, so when MCG offered to assist on a no cost contingency basis, we felt we had nothing to lose although we were skeptical about how much we had to gain. The skepticism quickly disappeared as MCG was able to utilize their superior knowledge and negotiating skills to dramatically increase the discounts available to Monster Cable.

Chief Executive Officer

Speck Products

Our international air freight and ocean container shipments are vital to the success of our company. MCG Logistics parcel and heavy weight freight audit and cost containment services were a perfect fit for our business. Their contingency based analysis of our supply chain characteristics proved to have a tremendous impact on our bottom line implementing cost reductions exceeding 23% while improving international service and transit times.

Executive Vice President

O’Neill Sportswear

MCG has exceeded our expectations. For years our parcel carrier kept telling us we were getting the best rates possible. We had no reason to believe otherwise. That is, until MCG came in and conducted a no cost rate analysis. MCG was able to negotiate an additional 25% savings for us and we didn’t even have to change carriers.

Director of Operations

Rip Curl USA

MCG’s team was able to obtain an additional 15% of savings from our incumbent carrier as a direct result of their knowledge, negotiation expertise and strength within the transportation community. We strongly recommend MCG, their process, and services.

Executive Vice President & CFO

NuVasive, Inc.

We are a high profile account with significant spend and were confident the rates we recently negotiated with our two parcel carriers could not be improved upon. MCG was brought in by a strategic business partner and once we understood their business model and process they ran a no cost benchmark analysis to validate what we thought were best in market rates and were able to deliver over $1 million in annual savings.

Senior Vice President

Yamaha Corporation of America (YCA)

The MCG process was simple, efficient, and effective at quickly establishing current market pricing comparisons against Yamaha’s current business volumes. MCG was able to implement additional cost/service improvements with Yamaha’s existing transportation suppliers.

Director of Distribution

Roland

MCG quickly and efficiently reduced our monthly logistics expense by over 15% with our current carriers. I would personally recommend MCG Logistics to any organization striving to reduce transportation costs and return profits to their bottom line.

Worldwide Logistics Manager

SonicWall

When we chose to partner with MCG Logistics, we were looking to leverage their deep insight into carrier contracts and pricing and negotiation expertise to reduce our logistics costs. Their work and support proved successful and allowed us to reduce our overall shipping expenses by an average of 22%. We appreciate having the MCG Logistics team as an additional resource and extension of our logistics team.

Senior Inventory Control Manager

Active Ride

We contracted with MCG Logistics to help reduce our e-Commerce shipping costs so we could remain cost competitive with our retailers. MCG was successful at reducing our parcel costs by 15% and on new home delivery we realized an overall savings of 27%.

Division Controller

efi/VUTEk

When we were first introduced to MCG Logistics we were looking to save money on freight expenses. We liked the idea of leveraging MCG for their no cost benchmark analysis to either validate our pricing was best in market or disprove this hypothesis and determine there was additional cost savings to be had. We honestly did not think there was any way to further improve our already aggressive pricing platform. Within eight weeks MCG was able to deliver further double digit rate reductions on all our parcel and international and domestic freight expenses.

Director of Distribution

Stone Brewing Company

Since the beginning of our partnership MCG has helped us determine the best way to cut costs in our delivery process. MCG created tremendous savings exceeding 20% by providing conversion of spot quoting to lower six month fixed prices. MCG provided RFQ pricing refreshes every six months to make sure we are receiving best in market pricing with our freight carriers. MCG provided optimized routing guides for all our lanes and modes to maximize savings and profitability and created savings exceeding our expectations.

Chief Financial Officer

Ossur

The MCG team was brought in by our Executive Management team to assist our operations team with supply chain spend management. The MCG team worked quickly and effectively to deliver reduced transportation costs within OSSUR’s heavy freight and small parcel transportation service provider network. MCG’s programs have created cost, service and management efficiencies with very low risk and impact to OSSUR’s day to day business activities.
